Report by The Board of Directors
Mr. Manu Leelanuwatana
Chairman
The year 2013 proved to be a considerably difficult year for both Thailand’s economy and the business community as a whole.
Against the backdrop of a slowly recovering global economy, the country’s economy, however, had to endure several harshly adverse
developments during the year.
Major critical impacts included the sharp hike in minimum wages to Baht 300 per day implemented across the country, coupled
with the drastic volatility in exchange rates movement, causing the Thai currency to strengthen its value at such rates higher than its
counterparts in the region, particularly against such major currencies as the Japanese yen and the US dollar. Consequently, the stronger
Baht led the country to lose its competitiveness against others in the international trade arena.
On the other hand, the domestic economy continued to face persistent stagnation, significantly affecting both the consumption and
the investment sectors at the same time. Such harsh situation was aggravated further by the prolonged political conflict within the country,
continuing unabated with no immediate end in sight, in turn hindering the country’s economic developments, and eroding the confidence
among international investors and visitors destined for the country.
These prevailing adverse factors naturally posed unavoidable negative impacts upon the performances by both Thai Wacoal Plc.
and other subsidiaries, leading to lower sales revenue and profits as the result. For the year 2013, the company registered total sales
revenue of Baht 3,629.51 million and net profits of Baht 254.34 million, representing the decline of 11.36% and 39.05% from the previous
year respectively.
Upon consideration of the company’s performance results and its financial standing for 2013, The Board of Directors resolved to
propose to the shareholders’ general meeting on April 21, 2014, to approve dividend payments to the shareholders at the rate of Baht 2.25
per share, altogether amounting to 106.16% of its total net profits, with the payment date being set for May 20, 2014.
Based on such firm belief that any serious difficulty also opened up the window of new opportunity as well, the company therefore
ensured its full readiness to embrace new forthcoming business ideas and prospects. For such purpose, the company strongly challenged
both its management and company employees to strengthen their joint efforts in propelling the company towards its ultimate business
objective-in establishing itself as a “World-Class Integrated Lingerie Trading Specialist” for the coming future.
Towards realizing such vision, it would be mandatory for the company to further upgrade its overall operating systems, so as to
become much more speedy, accurate, and effective, in responding to the diversifying customers’ requirements. Such improvements would
need to cover all essential operations areas, ranging from further developments in its logistics infrastructure, marketing planning and strategies,
cost-effective manufacturing processes, products merchandising creating value-added features, to the retail-end of sales outlets expansion.
Such critical developments would enable the company to achieve better effective access and response to serve the broadening customer
base and demands.
At the same time, the company would be required to explore prospects for expanding its manufacturing and business scope to
further overseas destinations. The key to such success would apparently lie in the company’s firm commitment and dedication towards
upgrading its human resources capabilities to such level compatible with the intensifying international challenges.
Equally important was the company’s firm commitment dedicated to upgrading its good corporate governance practices on a
consistent basis, accompanied by its full responsibilities commitment towards the society, together playing the important roles in allowing
company operations to be carried out in a transparent manner, with the interests of all stakeholders well in mind.
In recognition of these commitments, the company was chosen to receive an “Excellent” appraisal award for its good corporate
governance practices, as the result of the survey conducted among SET-listed companies for the year 2013. To support such good cause
further, at end-2013, The Board of Directors resolved to set-up The Corporate Governance Committee to provide full support to said
corporate governance practices by the company. In addition, the company’s campaign program entitled “Wacoal Pink Ribbon-Fighting Against
Breast Cancer” was also credited with “The Outstanding CSR Award for the ASEAN Region” for the year 2013.
Finally, on behalf of The Board of Directors, may we express our sincere thanks to the shareholders, customers, business
partners, company employees, and all the concerned parties, for their valuable contribution and support rendered the company throughout
the past year. For this year, we would look forward to receiving such continued valuable trust and support further, in serving as the
essential force driving our company towards further achievements and success, while preparing ourselves to be fully ready for the challenges
of The Asean Economic Community coming into effect in this near future.

Market and competitive situations
The lingerie market continued to be subject to intensifying competition, in term of design, product and service
quality, pricing, as well as sales channels, supported by customers’ diverse and sublime requirements pertaining to the
products. Accordingly, the major players were obliged to exercise their full efforts and strategies, in seeking to secure the
target customers.
The competition within the medium-to-high-end market segment placed much emphasis on better value-added
benefits, in term of both products and services to better appeal to the customers. Such benefits ranged from offering new
innovations and techniques in term of materials, production, designs and product features, to the upgrading of services
quality, aimed at better responding to and satisfying more diverse customers’ requirements.
21
On the other hand, the competition in the low-end market segment concentrated more or less on pricing strategy
rather than products quality and features aspect, seeking to attract and capture increasing number of the customers having
limited purchasing potential.
For year 2013, Thailand’s economy had to endure persistent slowdown conditions, caused by lower spending
potentials by the consumers in general, as the consequence to the government’s implementation of several populist policies,
including such programs as the first car policy and the sharp hike in minimum wages to Baht 300 level across the country.
These programs substantially drained normal purchasing powers by regular households away from mainstream consumption
market, and aggravated further by the prolonged political conflict ongoing in the country.
To cope with such severe adverse impacts, several ladies’ lingerie manufactures chose to resort to aggressive
pricing policy and lower profit margins in order to better appeal to the customers, coupled with their efforts to penetrate
the hypermarket channel, to gain broader customer base and sale revenue.
In line with above market developments, during 2013, the company unveiled its new lingerie brand called “B’me
by Wacoal”, aimed at the major target group of teenagers and working women, through the sales channels of discount
stores and 7-11 convenience stores, supported by aggressive advertising and sale promotion activities, and could achieve
satisfactory sale results to date.
At the same time, the company was engaged in efforts seeking to locate further new markets, to contribute to
better business advantages and prospects for the company. Such activities included the prospect in expanding its product
sales to neighboring countries within the region, to accommodate the imminent launch of the Asean Economic Community
(AEC) in the near future.
Furthermore, the company also devoted efforts to promote further product sales through the online marketing
channel, the popular shopping venue for modern-day customers seeking both convenience and speedy response to their
demands. At the same time, in its effort to better service the customers, the company sought to improve and upgrades
its warehousing and logistics network further, through the introduction of automated product sorting and delivery systems,
allowing for better effective and speedy response to the customer’s requirements in the coming days.
Whereas on the products front, the company was regularly engaged in the activities dedicated to creating “better
value and satisfaction” for its customers for both the domestic and overseas markets. Based on such firm commitment, the
company dedicated consistent efforts seeking to further upgrade and develop its products covering various areas, ranging
from materials selection, production techniques, product designs, to product features developments, surpassing such normal
requirements within the market.
At the same time, in its efforts seeking to develop the products better serving and complying with the changing
physical developments, as well as providing solutions to proportion problems faced by the customers, The Products Research
& Development Department was regularly engaged in collaboration activities with other companies within Saha Group, as
well as other business alliance companies, aimed at creating materials innovation offering better performance features than
those currently available in the market on a continuous basis. Together with its commitment to creating better products
quality and value, the company aimed to provide its customers with the products showcasing the best image and appeal,
completely free from hazardous substances and friendly to the environments, thus providing complete trust and confidence
to the customers, and leading to sustainable competitiveness by the company as the result.
Ladies’ Outerwear
Product nature
The company acted as the manufacturer and distributor for ladies’ outerwear products, whose sales revenue
accounted for about 2% of its total sales turnover. During 2013, there were significant developments regarding ladies’
outerwear products as follows:
•The company has expanded the product line for trademark in 9 for women after giving birth. This collection
is called “TIMELESS” and emphasizes on raw materials that are comfortable to wear, which can wear to work
and is suitable for new age mothers.
•The company has expanded product distribution channel under the company trademark through Catalog sales.
22
Annual Report 2013
In the face of fast-changing developments and demands by the customers, the company was required to
adapt itself and its product developments to better meet such demands with better competitive product costs. By acting as
both the manufacturer and distributor of its products, the company had better flexibility to adjust its production activities,
with the option to employ outsourcing manufacturing activity for lower production cost, while maintaining its reliable product
quality standard, However, due to the prevailing nature of ladies’ apparel products in the overall market, couples with more
intensifying competition by the days, the company would be required to exercise efforts to differentiate its products from
other regular products in the market, through such development of value-added features and quality for its products.
Childrenwear
Product nature
The company acted as the manufacturer of premium-quality of childrenwear products, for distribution to the domestic
market through its major distributor, while directly exporting its products to overseas destinations. Yearly childrenwear sales
turnover accounted for about 7% of the company’s total sales revenue. For 2013, some significant developments regarding
childrenwear products were as follows:
•To promote better environmental care on a continuous basis, the company dedicated its effort to developing
childrenwear items compatible to both hot and cool weather, together with the development of other accessory
items such as baby diaper, protective baby pants etc., to provide broader applications to the customers for further
market expansion in the future.
•Furthermore, the company devoted its effort to expand its export business operations further to other countries
within AEC, together with the introduction of its childrenwear products to the China market in 2013.
In the face of intensifying competition in the traditional selling channel of department stores, brought on by the
surge in childrenwear imports from overseas, the company was compelled to dedicate more effort to better develop its
products to serve the demands by its customers, in terms of appealing designs and better product features.
Furthermore, the company was engaged in activities seeking to develop new innovative products, free from
hazardous substances and friendly to the environments, providing better hygiene and safety to the babies, and contributing
to its further competitiveness in the days ahead.
Future industrial developments and competition trends
The lingerie manufacturing industry in Thailand could still be regarded as having relatively good prospects,
due to its existing comprehensive manufacturing facilities network within the country. The country also had an edge in
manufacturing skills and products quality widely recognized among the global lingerie manufacturing industry, subsequently
establishing Thailand as one of the world’s leading production base for lingerie products, particularly for the medium
to high-end market segment. To enhance the lingerie industry’s competitiveness both at home and abroad, Thai
manufacturers sought to engage in closer collaboration to develop value chain network, both on manufacturing and sales
& marketing fronts, to allow better flexible adjustments complying with developments in both the regional and global levels.
On the other hand, for the low-end market segment, major regional manufactures such as China, Hong Kong and
Vietnam, held the advantage through their lower manufacturing costs, resulting in the influx of cheap foreign lingerie imports
into the country affecting local manufacturing industry could not compete with them in term of lower prices. Accordingly,
they were forced to concentrate more on products developments, rather than simply resorting to price competition.
Export is expected to increase due to demand of main markets such as the U.S. and the European Union as their
economy begins to recover.
23
The company’s status and competitive potentials
In view of those opportunity and threat factors facing Thailand’s lingerie manufacturing business at present, our
company could still be regarded as having substantially favorable potentials, when compared to other competitors in general.
Such advantages could be attributed to the companies within our group having comprehensive manufacturing facilities
network in place. At the same time, the company also had solid technological and manufacturing base supported by
continuous products research & development investments, its extensive database on Thai women’s physical developments
over a long period of time, quality control system in compliance with international requirements, outstanding “Wacoal”
brand image long recognized and appreciated by Thai women over the past 40 years in term of both products quality
and services, as well as its careful and effective financial management system. Altogether, these factors contributed to the
company’s competitive potentials on a sustainable and long-term basis.
Product sources for the company and its subsidiaries
The company procures products by acting as the manufacturer for those products. Its manufacturing base was
first set-up in Bangkok, which later expanded to cover manufacturing facilities in subsidiary companies in upcountry areas,
namely SR.W. Garment Co., Ltd., Wacoal Lamphun Co., Ltd., Wacoal Kabinburi Co., Ltd., and Pattaya Kabinburi Co., Ltd.,
all having been granted promotional privileges by The Board of Investment. In 2011, the company set up another subsidiary
company named Tora 1010 Co., Ltd., to engage in products export business to overseas market. Factory details for the
company and its subsidiary companies as of December 31, 2013 are as follows:

Risk Factors
With due recognition by The Board of Directors of Thai Wacoal Public Company Limited of the various risk factors
posing as possible threats to the company’s business operations, The Board therefore assigned The Risk Management
Committee to be responsible for the supervision of the organization’s risk management practices in a systematic manner.
The Risk Management Committee has formulated risk management policies as follows:
1. To enable the company to manage any probable risk in an efficient manner, with such management procedures
implemented in a sound and systematic manner.
2. To promote preventive risk management procedures to be carried out in a swift, transparent, accurate, and
complete manner on a systematic and consistent basis.
3. To encourage and develop all employees and management members at all levels to have thorough understanding
and recognition of the significance of risk management procedures, while promoting participation in said risk
management system throughout the organization.
4. To facilitate risk management procedures to be implemented in an appropriate manner well conforming to the
company’s mission and policy.
For such purpose, The Risk Management Committee has engaged in the evaluation and analysis of those
risks possibly affecting the organization, covering both internal and external risk factors, setting priorities for the risk
management plan, as well as engaging in regular follow-up on the implementation of such plans. At the same time, The
Committee provided regular updates to The Board of Directors on the progress and developments regarding said plans on
a quarterly basis.
Those risk factors likely to have impacts on the company’s operations could be summarized as follows:
Risk stemming from products distribution structure relying on few players
Domestic
The company is mainly engaged in the manufacturing business of ladies’ lingerie products, with I.C.C. International
Public Company Limited, acting as its distributor for the domestic market, having yearly order volume accounting for over
50% of the company’s turnover total. Until the present, said distributor has achieved consistent favorable results, thanks to
its existing close relationship with major retailing channel of department stores. At the same time, the company has enjoyed
good business relationship with said distributor, and therefore is relatively confident of said company’s sound business
operations, together with the company’s products served as major contributor for said distributor’s yearly turnover total.
However, in the event that said major distributor became subject to serious adverse factors with regard to the
economy, political stability, market competition, or other negative factors causing substantial decline in products sales, the
company would then be affected by the reduction in purchase orders for its products from said distributor as the result.
Accordingly, as its fallback measure, the company was engaged in activities seeking to expand its sales channels further,
so as to minimize such adverse impacts.
Overseas
The company mostly exports its products to overseas countries, through such channel of companies belonging to
Wacoal Group located mainly in Japan, the U.S. and ASEAN. While the company may be susceptible to risk stemming
from order cancellation by said distribution group, nevertheless, upon considering other relevant factors, such event
appears to be quite unlikely. In view of said distribution group being major shareholder in the company who actively engages
in the manufacture of ladies’ lingerie products with extensive distribution network in overseas countries, together with the
company’s capability in manufacturing ladies’ lingerie products in an efficient and competitive manner in the international
scene, such products distribution arrangements through Wacoal Group can be seen as significantly contributing to business
interests for both the parties.
Risk stemming from the use of licensed trademark
The company was mainly engaged in the manufacture of products under licensing rights granted by Wacoal
Corporation, with such products contributing to over 80% of the company’s total turnover. Accordingly, its revenue could
become seriously affected on a long-term basis, should it come to lose said licensing rights for the products.
Nevertheless, in view of the existing favorable factors at present, namely, Wacoal Corporation holding 33.61%
of the company’s shares total, the long-standing close business relationship between the two parties, the company’s
continuing domestic market leadership, together with its favorable business performances so far, the extreme adverse
scenario of licensing rights revocation or licensing agreement termination would appear unlikely, particularly in view of the
company having been granted licensing rights extension from a previous 5-year term to the 10-year term at present.
25
Risk stemming from the launch of the ASEAN Economic Community (AEC)
To date, ladies’ lingerie products had been subject to intensifying competition, in term of better product designs
and features, competitive pricing, and extreme sales promotion campaigns, aimed at capturing increasing market share and
expanding existing customer base further.
The imminent launch of the AEC for this region would expedite and open up further resources free-flow across
the ASEAN region, in terms of both trade, products, services, capital flow, investment, and labour, thereby generating much
more serious challenges and competition in the coming days.
Basically, such regional market liberalization would open up our domestic market to more aggressive competition from
products coming from other ASEAN countries, possibly enjoying better competitive advantages due to their lower manufacturing
costs, and leading to more severe pricing competition as the result. As such, the year 2014 should expect to witness further
intensifying competition across all segments of ladies’ lingerie market, for both domestic as well as overseas markets.
Nevertheless, based on its vast knowhow and extensive experiences accumulated over the years, the company
was engaged in various activities in preparation to cope with such oncoming challenges. Preparation plans included ongoing
materials and products developments and innovations, further investment dedicated to developing more comprehensive
manufacturing network, to the effect in upgrading its services quality to better serve the customers. Equally important was
the company’s dedication to further improve and develop better knowledge, skills, and competency for its human resources,
leading to further competitiveness and sustainable growth for the company in the days ahead.
Risk stemming from changing consumer behavior
Today, consumers have placed less emphasis on brand loyalty, and more on product value. In its objective to
provide best satisfaction to the customers, the company has concentrated on creating new product innovations, as well
as engaging in the study of customer behavior and requirements on a consistent basis, thereby enabling the company
to better meet changing customer lifestyle. The company products could also be seen as adopting constant changes and
developments well compatible with customer behavior and lifestyle.
Foreign exchange risks
Since its business operations significantly relied on imports and exports in foreign currencies, the company was
subject to risks stemming from exchange rates fluctuation. Nevertheless, since the company was also engaged in managing
its revenue and expenses accounts in foreign currency term, such exchange risks could be addressed to a certain extent,
by properly scheduling its foreign exchange payments to correspond to incoming foreign exchange revenue (natural hedge).
Furthermore, the company was also engaged in currency forward contract, so as to minimize the impact from such
exchange risk, without any policy to become engaged in exchange rates speculation. At the same time, the company
regularly monitored the movements in foreign exchange markets, to better safeguard itself from any adverse exchange risks.
Risks from natural disasters The company has formulated plans to prevent and lessen risks stemming from flooding, fire, and earthquake disasters.
To cope with fire danger risk, the company implemented fire prevention plan and campaign, fire drill and evacuation
training, and installation of emergency fire alarm and sprinkler system. The company carried out regular checking and
testing of its fire-fighting equipments, to ensure their proper functioning condition. The company also formulated plan
to accommodate temporary employees transfer and workplace relocation in the case of serious fire accident, to allow
continuous operations running for the company.
To alleviate possible damage incurred by the disasters, the company entered into insurance agreements covering
its assets against disaster risks, so as to minimize the damages stemming from such risks. With regard to flooding threat,
the company set up specific committee to take charge of prevention and solution measures to tackle the flood, both before,
during, and after the crisis situation, accompanied by its regular updates to keep abreast of the situation developments.
Risks stemming from political instability in the country
The prolonged political conflict ongoing in the country had caused severe adverse impacts upon the business
investments and tourism sectors, in turn affecting the prospects in generating jobs and income. Such stagnant economic
situation led to substantial slowdown in consumer spending due to more careful spending and saving, subsequently
resulting in lower products sales on an overall basis. In view of such challenges, the company was engaged in efforts
seeking to establish further sales channels, together with plans to expand its export sales revenue further.
Other risks
In due recognition of the fast changing economic environments both at home and abroad, the company always
adopted an alert attitude with necessary preparations to implement changes in its strategies and plans, to cope with any
serious developments possibly affecting the company’s operations.

selection of the persons having good qualifications and sound morality and ethics to join the company. The company then
trains and develops these people to be well-prepared to meet the challenges as future management members, through its
consistent evaluation process of employees’ potentials and capabilities.
Those employees so selected and trained by the company would be assigned to work in the positions having
higher authority and responsibility scope. As general practice, the company regularly carries out training programs seeking

appointed by the company to be a director in subsidiaries and associate. The number of individual that the company voted

Said good corporate governance practice could be largely classified into 5 sections as follows:
Section 1 : The Rights of Shareholders

The Board of Directors duly recognized the importance of the shareholders and duly respected their ownership

and company website, to provide shareholders with additional access channel. Such information included performance
results, connected transactions, changes in the funding structure, changes in supervisory control, transactions of significant
company assets, and other information essential for decision-making by shareholders.
The company held its annual shareholders’ meeting regularly each year, within 4 months after completing its

Section 5 : Responsibilities of The Board of Directors
5.1 Structure of The Board of Directors
The Board of Directors had important responsibility in setting the direction for the company’s business operations,
following up on the work results by its management members, and being responsible for their duties to contribute to the
best interests of the shareholders and the company.
(1) Composition of The Board of Directors
The Board of Directors comprised 15 directors, classified into:
- Non-executive directors
10 persons (including 5 independent directors)
- Executive directors
5 persons
72
Annual Report 2013
The Board of Directors consisted of qualified directors with knowledge, proficiency, and various
experiences in accounting, finance, management, marketing, laws and textiles, as well as no gender discrimination. The
number of directors of the company is at the appropriate proportion since the four directors are representatives of major
shareholders and are stationed overseas. However, they provided useful suggestion and advice in business operation to
the company consistently.
In addition, non-executive directors who have experience in work related to the business of the company
amounted to 5 persons, which are Mr. Yoshikata Tsukamoto, Mr. Yuzo Ide, Mr. Thamarat Chokwatana, Mr. Ikuo Otani,
and Mr. Kiyotaka Hiroshima.
The company’s number of directors, excluding independent directors is a fair proportion of the
investments of each group of shareholders. Independent directors accounted for 33.33% of the total number of The Board
of Directors, complying with the requirements by The Capital Market Advisory Board, whereas non-executive directors
accounted for 66.67% of the total number of The Board of Directors.
(2) Independent director’s qualifications
Every member of the company’s independent directors is fully qualified to serve as an independent
director under the rules set by the company. Independent directors who are women are accounted for 60 percent of all
independent directors. None of independent directors are appointed as the company’s director for more than 9 years, or
take a position as director in more than 5 listed companies.
The Board of Directors resolved to adopt the definition for “independent director” having qualifications
in accordance with the notification of The Capital Market Supervisory Board. Nonetheless, practically the independent
directors of the company are truly independent from the management and major shareholders of the company. Independent
directors and the person being involved have no shareholding in the company, parent company, subsidiaries, associates,
major shareholders, or person in authority of the company.
(3) Directors selection process
The Board of Directors appointed The Nominating Committee, to supervise the director selection process
to be carried out in a transparent manner (See the details under the heading “Corporate Governance”, on the selection
and appointment of the directors and chief executive officers).
(4) Directorship term for independent directors
The Board of Directors were elected by the shareholders’ meeting, with directorship term complying
with company regulations, while being eligible for re-election after term completion. At present, independent directors were
allowed to serve not more than 3 consecutive terms and did not serve as director in more than 5 listed companies.
(5) The number of companies served by each director
The company disclosed the information regarding the holding of directorship by each company director in
other companies in the attached document 1 on details about the company directors, the management, person in authority,
and company secretary. At present, none of the company’s directors serve as director in more than 5 listed companies.
Nevertheless, the company has not specified the number of listed companies and non-listed subsidiaries that each director
hold directorship for not more than 5 places, since the company needed the directors to supervise operation management
of subsidiaries to be in the same direction.
Furthermore, the company believed that each director’s business expertise and capabilities should not be
restricted by the number of companies said director served, as long as he/she proved to be capable and devoted enough
to carry out own assignments in fulfilling the expectations by The Board of Directors and shareholders. There was 1 director
serving as the director in more than 2 listed companies. Nonetheless, the company believed that such situation would not
affect his assignments, since the director could still devote sufficient time to carry out the assignments for the company,
by regularly attending meetings and presenting comments beneficial to company operations all along.
In addition, the company assigned a policy to appoint the Managing Director as directors in its subsidiary
companies and affiliate companies, so as to facilitate smooth and consistent operations management for these companies.
73
(6) The separation of the positions of Chairman from the Managing Director
Based on the different responsibility and authority scope between Chairman of The Board of Directors
and the Managing Director, the company therefore specified the Chairman of The Board of Directors and the Managing
Director to be different persons, so as to clearly separate the supervision and management authority for the company, and
contributing to proper authority balance in company management within the company. In relation to this, the company
has set up The Board of Directors Charter, setting the authority and duty scope for each committee and clearly separating
Chairman from those of The Managing Director.
Furthermore, despite the Chairman of The Board of Directors not being an independent director,
nevertheless, both of them duly carried out their assignments in an independent manner, and providing opportunities to
all directors to act freely in expressing own opinions and suggestions contributing to the best interests of the organization.
(7) Company Secretary
The Board of Directors resolved to appoint Mrs. Onanong Saengpumpong, Executive Director and
Director Accounting & Finance Division, as the Company Secretary, having the duties and responsibilities as specified by
the company. (See the details under the heading “Management structure” on company secretary.)
5.2Various committees
5.3The roles, authority, and responsibility scope of The Board of Directors
The Board of Directors appointed several committees comprising of competent and experienced members to
supervise over each particular aspect of company operations, and clearly laid down the authority and responsibility scope
for each committee per the charter for said committee. (Additional details are under the heading “Corporate Governance”
on various committees and “Management structure” on The Board of Directors)
Although The Nominating Committee and The Remuneration Committee are not Independent Directors, all of
them are directors with knowledge and experience who served the positions for a long period of time. They have performed
their duties with responsibility and honesty, while never voted when they are stakeholders. On the other hand, The Risk
Management Committee, and The Corporate Governance Committee have the Chairman as independent directors and
consisted of mostly independent directors.
Furthermore, the directors and senior executives of the company have never been employees or partners of
outside auditing companies that serviced the company in the past 2 years.
(1) Leadership and vision
The Board of Directors consisted of members who had extensive capabilities and experiences beneficial
to company management, together with leadership and independent decision-making qualities, necessary to supervise
company operations in such manner best contributing to the objectives and goals of the company and shareholders.
The Board of Directors were obliged to assign the vision and mission of the company, also to schedule
the review every five years, as well as to approve strategy, target, plan, and annual budget of the company proposed by
the management. At the same time, they were required to ensure that there were adequate mechanisms in supervising,
monitoring, and evaluating performances by the management, so as to meet the targets contributing to further value and
wealth for both shareholders and the company, while properly safeguarding the interests of all stakeholders concerned.
(2) Good corporate governance
In due recognition of the importance of good corporate governance practice, The Board of Directors
therefore laid down good corporate governance policy in writing, consisting of 4 parts of information which are corporate
governance policies, corporate governance principles, business ethics, and code of conduct of the company’s directors,
the management and employees. There was evaluation of compliance and review of good corporate governance principles
annually, and revealed through the company website. The manual was distributed to directors, the management,
and employees, which required that all of them comply with such manual strictly, in order to strengthen the company’s
management system with transparent business operations. (See full details of corporate governance policies, business
ethics, and code of conduct for company directors, the management and employees on the company website).
74
Annual Report 2013
(3) The policy regarding possible conflict of interests
The Board of Directors placed much importance on ensuring that any transaction with possible conflict
of interest was carried out in a cautious, careful, and honest manner. Accordingly, the company incorporated the policy
regarding possible conflict of interest into its policy pertaining to corporate governance and business ethics, with said policy
details displayed on the company website. For 2013, the company displayed such items with possible conflict of interest
under the heading “Inter-Transaction”.
(4) Supervision over internal control and audit systems
The Board of Directors placed much emphasis on the systems overseeing financial control, company
management, and corporate supervision, by assigning The Internal Audit Office to supervise over the audit, review, and
monitoring of those operations results. Furthermore, The Internal Audit Office also provided recommendations to ensure
independent and effective practices according to those guidelines in an independent and balanced manner.
Accordingly, The Board of Directors instructed The Internal Audit office to directly report to The Audit
Committee each month, so as to allow the Committee to review and ensures sufficient internal control practice. At The
Board of Directors’ meeting no.5/2013, also attended by The Audit Committee members, the meeting together reviewed the
adequacy of the internal control system and risk management system, and then concluded that the company had adequate
internal control system in place. (The details are disclosed under the heading “Internal control and risk management”).
With this regard, The Audit Committee is responsible for considering and giving approval for the
appointment, transfer and dismissal of the head of internal audit office. Currently, the head of the company’s internal audit
office is Mrs. Nuanchan Tuangjareontip, who has good quality of knowledge, abilities and experiences in internal audit.
(5) Risk management
Regarding risk management The Board of Directors supervised to ensure that the company had
adequate systems overseeing the review, monitoring, and management of possible risks, by placing emphasis on the
detection of advance danger signals and significant irregularities.
The Board of Directors appointed The Risk Management Committee, to set policies regarding risk
management, and supervising risk management practices for the overall organization, to ensure that all risks were properly
maintained at acceptable levels. Furthermore, The Committee analyzed and evaluated possible risks, and compiled risk
management report, for submission directly to The Board of Directors. (See the details on risk management for each area
of the company under the heading “Risk factors”).
5.4The Board of Directors’ meeting
The Board of Directors set the meeting schedule in advance all year, by holding the meeting at least once
every 3 months as specified in the charter for The Board of Directors, with additional meeting to be summoned according
to necessary circumstances. For each meeting and agenda for The Board of Directors’ meeting, each director was able
to propose agenda, and the Chairman together with the Managing Director shall consider the matter to be brought into
the meeting. After that, the Company Secretary sent out meeting invitation letter, meeting agenda, and relevant meeting
documents, to the directors not less than 7 days in advance, to allow them sufficient time to review the information prior
to the meeting.
All directors considered as their duties to attend the meeting each time, unless unable to do so due to
significant obligation or illness. During the meeting, The Chairman allowed the directors to present opinions and comments
freely, while those directors having conflict of interests would not be allowed to attend or cast votes at such meetings. The
Company Secretary recorded the meeting minutes and then classified those minutes in a systematic manner, to facilitate
easy references.
The Board of Directors supported the joint meeting between The Board of Directors and The Executive
Board at least once a year, to deliver yearly strategic targets and operation plans of the company, as well as to build
good relationships between directors and executives. In addition, Chief Financial Officer has joined The Board of Directors’
meeting at all times.
75
The Board of Directors has laid down a policy that Independent Directors arrange their own meeting, without
executive directors or the management of the company, at least once a year so that Independent Directors can consider
and discuss various issues about management or issues that are of interest. The results of the meeting were informed to
the Managing Directors.
During 2013, The Board of Directors held 6 meetings altogether and Independent Director of the
Company held 1 meeting, without the management in attendance. (See the details about the meetings under the heading
“Management structure” on The Board of Directors, no. 1.3 the number of directors’ meeting).
5.5Self-evaluation by The Board of Directors
The Board of Directors provided the opportunity for each director to carry out evaluation of the performances
by entire The Board of Directors in 2013, which was implemented on a yearly basis, so as to review performance results,
problems, and obstacles faced during the past year, in order to contribute to better effective performances by The Board
of Directors.
In 2013, the company delivered an evaluation form on the performance of The Board of Directors to all
directors. Every director was independent in taking such evaluation. The evaluation form was returned to the Company
Secretary once completed to be collected, summarized, and reported to The Board of Directors at The Board of Directors’
meeting no. 5/2013 on February 20, 2014 which resulted in an overall evaluation as “good”, with the average score of 79
percent. The evaluation criteria accounted to a percentage of the full score in each of the following:
Criteria
Excellent Good Fair Poor Bad Score
Up to 80 percent

Less than 50 percent
During 2013, each Audit Committee member also presented own appraisal version of The Audit Committee’s
overall achievements, to contribute to better effectiveness and efficiency in its operations.
Nevertheless, the company did not evaluate directors individually, since the evaluation in the form of The
Board of Directors can reflect the performance as a whole, which each director can improve deficient parts of the topic
very well.
With regard to the appraisal of the performances by The Managing Director, this would be carried out by
The Chairman and Vice-Chairman, by considering the work results relating to each management aspect carried out by The
Managing Director during each particular year.

The necessity and rationale for entering into transactions with parties with possible
conflict of interests
To sustain the company’s operations under the prevailing severe competitive situation, the company needed to
secure the support of business partners and business alliance network from upstream to downstream industries, further
contributing to its competitiveness and business potentials, and leading to its further development and sustainable growth
in the future.
While its business partners and business alliance members might be parties with possible conflict of interests,
nevertheless, The Board of Directors might find it reasonable and necessary to enter into agreement or transaction with
said parties, with the interests of the shareholders and the company in mind. In such case, the transaction price would be
based on normal business terms, without harboring any intention to engage in unjust transfer of company asset or interest
to such parties with possible conflict of interests.
At the same time, The Board of Directors duly followed the requirements in The Securities and Exchange Act
(no.4) B.E. 2551 article 89/12, by authorizing the company’s management, after the completion of the annual shareholders’
meeting, to enter into such transactions considered to normal business transactions and business support transactions under
normal business terms in such same manner as other business partners under the same circumstances. Such transactions
would be carried out without any exercise of undue influence due to such status as director, management member, or
related persons, with such transactions duly reported to The Board of Directors’ meeting held each quarter.
Opinions regarding inter-transactions by independent directors
For such inter-transactions considered significant, the company followed its policy in proposing such transactions
to The Board of Directors’ meeting, either for their approval or for further forwarding to the shareholders’ meeting for their
approval.
The independent directors concluded not to have any different opinions regarding inter-transactions in 2013, from
those resolutions adopted by The Board of Directors’ meeting.
Policy and trend for future inter-transaction
The Board of Directors duly recognized their responsibilities as the directors of public company in carrying out their
duties toward the shareholders, employees, and all stakeholders, in accordance with good corporate governance practices.
Accordingly, those inter-transactions likely to take place in the future, would represent normal business transactions, with
the disclosure of information duly carried out in accordance with The Notification of The Capital Market Supervisory Board,
regarding “rules on connected transactions”.
Persons with possible conflict of interests holding combined shareholding in subsidiary /
associate companies over the level of 10%
The company did not have persons with possible conflict of interests holding combined shareholding in subsidiary
companies over the level of 10%. However, the company had 2 persons with possible conflict of interests holding combined
shareholding in associate company over the level of 10%, as the result of the engagement in joint business investments
by the company and such persons with possible conflict of interests, in utilizing their outstanding knowledge and expertise
in their roles as business associates to the company.

The Board of Directors’ Responsibility Report
towards Financial Statements
The Board of Directors duly recognized their obligations and responsibilities in their status as the directors of
SET listed company, with regard to the compilation of financial statements for Thai Wacoal Public Company Limited and
its subsidiary companies. Said financial statements were prepared in accordance with Thai Financial Reporting Standards
(TFRS), based on the adoption of appropriate accounting policies on a consistent basis, accompanied by careful
consideration and justifiable accounting estimates.
Furthermore, adequate significant information was disclosed per the notes to the financial statements, together with
necessary clarification and analysis regarding the financial positions and performances by the company and its subsidiaries,
so as to contribute to the interests of the shareholders and general investors. Moreover, said financial statements were
duly audited and unconditionally verified by independent certified public accountants.
At the same time, The Board of Directors had exercised efforts to promote good governance practice, and to
establish risk management system and internal control system in an efficient and effective manner. These practices were
intended to ensure that the recording of accounting information was carried out in an accurate, complete, and sufficient
manner, in order to safeguard the assets of the company and its subsidiaries, while also safeguarding against any
significant fraud or abuse.
In the regard, The company’s Audit Committee whose members comprising independent directors had duly carried
out audit work on the quality of the financial statements and the efficiency of internal control system. The opinions of The
Audit Committee were displayed per the Audit Committee’s report contained in the annual report publication, as well as
the annual registration statement (form 56-1).
Accordingly, The Board of Directors concluded that, the good corporate governance practice, the risk
management system, as well as the internal control system already in place at the company, were well adequate and
sufficient, reasonably providing sufficient confidence to all the concerned parties that, the financial statements of the
company and its subsidiaries ending December 31, 2013, were prepared and presented in substantial context, in an

Report of the Independent
Certified Public Accountants
TO THE SHAREHOLDERS AND BOARD OF DIRECTORS
THAI WACOAL PUBLIC COMPANY LIMITED
We have audited the consolidated financial statements of Thai Wacoal Public Company Limited and its
subsidiaries and the separate financial statements of Thai Wacoal Public Company Limited, which comprise the
consolidated and separate statements of financial position as at December 31, 2013, and the related consolidated and
separate income statements and statements of comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for the year then
ended, and notes, comprising a summary of significant accounting policies and other explanatory information.
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance
with Thai Financial Reporting Standards, and for such internal control as management determines is necessary to enable
the preparation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audit. We conducted our
audit in accordance with Thai Standards on Auditing. Those standards require that we comply with ethical requirements and
plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free from material
misstatement.
An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor’s judgment, including the assessment of the risks of
material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the
auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity’s preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in order
to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on
the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies
used and the reasonableness of accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation
of the financial statements.
We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit
opinion.
Opinion
In our opinion, the aforementioned consolidated and separate financial statements present fairly, in all material
respects, the financial position of Thai Wacoal Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries and of Thai Wacoal Public
Company Limited as at December 31, 2013, and financial performance and cash flows for the year then ended in
accordance with Thai Financial Reporting Standards.
Emphasis of Matter
Without modifying our opinion, as discussed in Note 3 to the financial statements, Thai Wacoal Public Company
Limited and its subsidiaries have adopted Thai Accounting Standard No. 12 “Income Taxes” for the first time. The
corresponding figures thus have been retrospectively restated to be in accordance with the new accounting policy.

3.ADOPTION OF NEW AND REVISED THAI FINANCIAL REPORTING STANDARDS
Since January 1, 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries have adopted the new and revised Thai Financial
Reporting Standards (TFRS) issued by the Federation of Accounting Professions, which are effective for the financial
statements for the accounting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013 onwards, in preparation of financial statements.
Such TFRS have no significant impact on the Company and its subsidiaries’ financial statements except for the following
TFRS.
TAS 12 “Income Taxes”
Since January 1, 2013, the Company and its subsidiaries have firstly adopted TAS 12 “Income Taxes” by changing
accounting policy relating to income tax from accrual basis based on the taxable profit for the year to deferred income tax
which income tax expense (income) represents the sum of the tax currently payable and deferred tax. The tax currently
payable is the tax amount expected to be paid to the taxation authorities, based on taxable profits determined in accordance
with tax legislation. Deferred tax is recognized on temporary differences between the carrying amounts of assets and
liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of taxable profit (tax base).
Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognized for all taxable temporary differences, and deferred tax assets are generally
recognized for temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that taxable profits will be available against which
those temporary differences can be utilized. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the reporting date.
117
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply to the period when
the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted at the
end of the reporting period.
Income tax expense or income related to profit or loss are presented in the income statement. For current income
taxes and deferred taxes related to items recognized directly in other components of equity in the same or different period,
they will be recognized directly in other comprehensive income.
Impacts from change in the accounting policy on the financial statements are summarized as follows:

are expected to apply to the period when the asset is realized or the liability is settled, based on tax rates that have been

36. DISCLOSURE OF INFORMATION ON FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS
36.1 Credit risk
Credit risk refers to the risk that accounts receivable will default on its contractual obligations resulting in
a financial loss to the Company. The Company may have concentration of risks as most of trade accounts receivable are
related companies. However, the Company does not have any damage incurred from non - compliance with its contractual
obligations of the accounts receivable - related companies and expects that there is no credit risk.
In the case of recognized financial assets in the statement of financial position, the carrying amount of the
assets recorded in the statement of financial position, represents the Company’s maximum exposure to credit risk.
36.2 Interest rate risk
Interest rate risk arises from the potential for a change in interest rates to have an effect on the operation
of the Company in the current reporting period and in future years. However, the effect of the change in interest rate does
not have a material impact on the Company as the investments in debt securities have fixed interest rate and the Company
has no significant loans.
36.3 Exchange rate risk
Exchange rate risk arises from the potential for a change in exchange rate to have an adverse effect on
the Company in the current reporting period and in future years.
The Company uses derivative financial instruments which consist of forward contracts to reduce exposure
to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange.
Forward contract protects the Company from movements in exchange rate by establishing the rate at which
a foreign currency asset and liability will be settled. Any increase or decrease in the amount required to settle the asset
or liability is off-set by a corresponding movement in the forward exchange contract.
The notional amount and the fair value of derivatives as at December 31, 2013 and 2012 are as follows:

value of financial instruments as disclosed herein:
Cash and cash equivalents, temporary investments, trade accounts receivable, short-term loans and deposit
at bank under obligation; the carrying values approximate their fair values.
Investments in marketable securities; fair value is based on quoted market prices. For investment in
non-listed companies; fair value is based on net asset value of related securities. The fair value of unit trust is determined
from the trusts’ net asset value. The fair value of bonds and debentures is calculated by using the latest bid yield as quoted
by the Thai Bond Market Association.
Trade accounts payable, the carrying value approximates fair values.

41. RISK MANAGEMENT POLICIES FOR ASSETS AND LIABILITIES IN FOREIGN CURRENCIES
Management Discussion and Analysis
Analysis of the company’s operating results and financial standings
Overall economic situation during the past year 2013
The year 2013 proved to be a considerably difficult year for both Thailand’s economy and the business community
as a whole. Against the backdrop of a slowly recovering global economy, the country’s economy, however, had to endure
several harshly adverse developments during the year.
Major critical impacts included the sharp hike in minimum wages to Baht 300 per day implemented across the
country, coupled with the drastic volatility in exchange rates movement, causing the Thai currency to strengthen its value at
such rates higher than its counterparts in the region, particularly against such major currencies as the Japanese yen and
the US dollar. Consequently, the stronger Baht led the country to lose its competitiveness against others in the international
trade arena.
On the other hand, the domestic economy continued to face persistent stagnation, significantly affecting both the
consumption and the investment sectors at the same time. Such harsh situation was aggravated further by the prolonged
political conflict within the country, continuing unabated with no immediate end in sight, in turn hindering the country’s
economic developments, and eroding the confidence among international investors and visitors destined for the country.
1. Analysis of performance results for 2013 as compared to 2012
Overall performances
For 2013, Thai Wacoal Public Company Limited and its subsidiaries could achieve sales turnover of Baht 3,629.51
million, and net profits of Baht 254.34 million, representing a decline of 11.36% and 39.05% respectively, while its total
assets stood at Baht 6,026.74 million, representing a 6.05% decline, with its return on equity, and return on assets standing
at 4.98% and 4.09% respectively.
Major factors contributing to above results could be largely summarized as follows:
Sales turnover from product sales and services
For 2013, the company could achieve total sales turnover of Baht 3,629.51 million, representing the decline of
Baht 465.18 million or 11.36% compared to Baht 4,094.69 million recorded earlier for 2012.
Above sales decline could be largely attributed to substantial drop for both the domestic and export sales revenue.
The domestic sales turnover posted a decline of Baht 283.03 million or 10.02% compared to a year earlier, largely due to
the changes implemented by its major distributor with regard to its inventory management system, causing the cutback in
its purchasing orders as the result. The situation was further aggravated by the prolonged political conflict ongoing in the
country, significantly affecting the tourism industry as well as the overall market consumption.
On the other hand, the company’s export sales revenue was also subject to substantial decline of Baht 182.15
million or 14.33% compared to a year earlier, due to the Thai Baht appreciation, resulting in less revenue amount for the
same export volume.

Annual Report 2013
Other income
For 2013, the company recorded other income of Baht 129.12 million, as compared to Baht 125.06 million
achieved a year earlier, classified into interest income of Baht 56.61 million, rental income of Baht 15.47 million, and
exchange gain of Baht 17.11 million, altogether representing a 3.25% or Baht 4.06 million increase over the preceding
year. Said improvement could be attributed to the foreign exchange gain due to its earlier adoption of the forwarding
contract.
Cost of sales
For 2013, the company’s cost of sales stood at 78.17% of total sales turnover, as compared to 75.96% recorded
in earlier 2012, representing a 2.21% increase from the year earlier, as the result of the rise in direct expenses due to the
sharp hike in minimum wages, coupled with less gross profit from export sales due to the Baht appreciation.
Selling expenses
For 2013, the company posted selling expenses of Baht 96.82 million, as compared to Baht 63.34 million recorded
a year earlier, representing an increase of Baht 33.48 million or 52.86%, largely caused by high advertising and sales
promotion expenses budget, to promote the marketing of its new lingerie brand “B’me”, mainly through the modern trade
channel.
Administrative expenses
For 2013, the company posted administrative expenses of Baht 510.27 million, as compared to Baht 518.87 million
recorded a year earlier, representing a decline of 1.66%, largely due to the reversal of loss from goods returned and the
decline in company employee expenses.
Income tax expenses
For 2013, the company posted income tax expenses of Baht 41.34 million, representing a Baht 51.30 million
decline over Baht 92.64 million recorded a year earlier, largely due to less profits achieved by the company, together with
lower corporate income tax rate of 20%, compared to the previous 23% rate a year earlier.
Net profits attributable to owners of the parent
For 2013, the company registered net profits of Baht 254.34 million, representing a decline of Baht 162.98 million
or 39.05% from Baht 417.32 million recorded a year earlier. Whereas earnings per share stood at Baht 2.12, return on
total revenue at 6.65%, return on equity at 4.98%, and return on assets at 4.09% respectively. Said decline in net profits
could be largely attributed to less sales revenue from domestic sales, accompanied by lower gross profits from export sales
due to the Baht appreciation, and higher production cost caused by the minimum wage increase.
The company’s profit quality could be considered favorable, with the company posting cash flow from operating
activities of Baht 175.27 million, due to sales income and payment collections mostly achieved according to due dates.

At end-2013, the company posted total liabilities of Baht 1,024.73 million, representing Baht 180.24 million or
